Divorce
Ilkhanoff & Silverstein is honored to serve the LGBTQ community in all matters of family law and divorce. For too long this community’s rights were set aside and they were not able to marry in Pennsylvania. In 2014, the Commonwealth legalized same-sex marriage when a U.S. federal district court judge ruled that the ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional, a ban that was put in place in 1996. Until 2014, those who wished to get married had to do so in other states, like Vermont and Massachusetts. When they arrived back home in Pennsylvania, their marriage was not recognized. Additionally, they were locked in marriages and not permitted to divorce because of the same reason. In 2014, Pennsylvania became the 19

Child Support
The primary goal of child support is to allow the child to maintain their standard of living that they were used to before the divorce. Child support payments can be put towards any expense that may be associated with the child, including housing, food, entertainment, school fees, and extracurricular activities. The court will determine the amount of child support based on several criteria, including...
Child Custody and Visitation
Any time a family is torn apart by divorce, extended family members also feel the effects. Grandparents and their grandchildren often have a very close bond. It can be devastating to learn that they may not be able to spend as much time together as they once did. Unbeknownst to many, grandparents do have rights under the state’s law to help preserve the familial bond between them and their grandchildren. In the state of Pennsylvania, grandparents may petition the court for custody and visitation rights if the situation lends itself. If the court agrees that providing these rights is in the best interest of the child, they may order the custodial parent to allow access. Ilkhanoff & Silverstein has significant experience helping clients through these tough, emotional legal matters. We recognize the impact of these cases and take our responsibility seriously when handling these sensitive situations. If you are a grandparent that wishes to seek custody or visitation of your grandchild in Pennsylvania, contact Ilkhanoff & Silverstein today to discuss your case.
Adoption
Paternity
It happens all too often that the non-custodial parent falls behind on payments or even stops making payments altogether. If you are struggling to get your ex-spouse to fulfill their financial obligations to your children, you may have to go to court to see your needs met. Pennsylvania has an agency to deal with those who are delinquent in child support payments. The Bureau of Child Support Enforcement resolves matters related to child support, including the establishment of paternity and getting court orders for child support.
Spousal Support
Alimony can be worked out between couples prior to their divorce hearing, or ruled on by the court. When it is left to the court to make a final decision in the matter, several factors will be looked at, including the duration of the marriage, the ages and health of each spouse, each spouse’s income and future income potential, and the ability of the spouse seeking support to become employable.
Child Abuse
You may be eligible for adoption if you are over 21 years of age, have the financial resources to care for a child, and have no criminal history of child abuse, neglect or other crimes against children. If you have questions about your adoption eligibility, consult with an attorney.

DUI/DWI
If you are lucky enough to survive a DUI accident, stay calm. It is important to call the police and tell them you need medical attention. Driving under the influence is a serious crime. The police will be quite helpful in documenting the accident and establishing evidence that the other driver shouldn’t have been behind the wheel. They can also testify in court on your behalf. When medical professionals arrive, they will be able to document your injuries and get you the medical care you need. If you are seriously injured, go to the hospital and receive a full examination. If you are able, it may be good to collect information about the other driver, the cars involved, take pictures of the accident, and get the contact information regarding the police officer and any other witnesses.
Wrongful Death
The unexpected loss of a loved one is a shocking experience. When this is the result of an accident caused by negligence, it is important to consider your legal options. Even though a lawsuit will never fully compensate you for your loss, the financial impact of a wrongful death case cannot be overlooked. If the victim was a primary source of income for the family, you may be experiencing financial stress as a result. Ilkhanoff & Silverstein recognizes that this is a devastating time. While you focus on healing from your loss, our firm is ready to focus on helping mitigate the impact of the loss on the future. You could be entitled to compensation if your attorney can prove negligence. If you are ready to speak about the road ahead, Ilkhanoff & Silverstein is too. Please feel free to contact our firm to meet with our compassionate team of trial attorneys. We are ready to fight for you. Contact Ilkhanoff & Silverstein.
Traffic Violations
Truck accidents are often more complex cases because of the multiple parties that can be involved. Commercial truck operators and trucking companies are subject to numerous federal and state regulations specifically to improve safety. Even though these laws are meant to protect drivers from being exploited, employers want to see little to no change in productivity. Unfortunately, truck drivers find themselves making serious mistakes in the effort to satisfy employers while attempting to not break federal regulations. This stress can lead to negligent acts including drowsy, drugged, drunk, distracted, or reckless driving. When this is the case, a truck or its operator may be a danger to have on the road.
Sex Crimes
The Protection from Abuse Act (PFA) is state legislation designed to protect individuals and their children from abuse. It is a civil order that is filed to prevent domestic violence such as physical threats, intimidation, sexual assault, false imprisonment, sexual abuse, and stalking.
Robbery
White Collar Crimes
Theft
Misdemeanors
Of course, not all crimes can be removed from a person’s record. Some of the misdemeanor charges that are not permitted to be expunged from an individual’s record include the following...
Drug Crimes
If you are charged and convicted of a drug crime, the penalties for a conviction are not only severe, but it can change the course of your life. A first conviction for possession of a small amount of marijuana can result in a jail sentence of 30 days plus a mandatory 6 months license suspension. Being convicted of a drug crime can result in
Assault
In the state of Pennsylvania, committing a criminal act is taken very seriously. There are situations where simple misdemeanors can be upgraded to a felony, which can result in more serious consequences for the convicted individual. One example of this is when a simple assault charge is upgraded to an aggravated assault charge because the offender used a deadly weapon during the crime. A simple assault conviction is a second-degree misdemeanor while an aggravated assault conviction is a first or second-degree felony that can result in significant jail time.
Murder
Whether you are charged with a felony, misdemeanor, a summary offense, or a simple traffic ticket, it is important to speak with an attorney that can protect your rights. Your future can be impacted by the decisions you make today. The quality of attorney will make a difference in the aftermath. Our firm has significant experience defending clients against numerous charges and violations, including DUI, drug crimes, internet crimes, juvenile crimes, manslaughter, murder, sex crimes, theft, domestic violence and all traffic offenses.

Juvenile Crimes
Identity Theft
Arson
Kidnapping
Manslaughter
Internet Crimes
The internet has changed our lives to a vast degree. With everything at our fingertips, it has generally improved our quality of life and has increased productivity as a whole. With it though, comes heavy policing and sometimes charges are filed against the innocent. When an individual in Pennsylvania is accused of an internet crime, they are facing very serious consequences. While the nature of these crimes covers a broad range, it is important to recognize how significant they can be. Nothing is safe on the internet. If you have been charged with an internet crime, contact Ilkhanoff & Silverstein today to discuss your case.
Hit and Run
UM/UIM coverage covers you and your family whether you are a driver, passenger, pedestrian or the victim of a hit and run accident. Our firm encourages you to purchase a minimum of $100,000/$300,000 of UM/UIM coverage if possible. All insurance policies in Pennsylvania are required to include uninsured motorist coverage unless coverage is specifically rejected in writing by the insured. While some Pennsylvania drivers choose to reject this coverage so they can save money on their premium each month, forgoing this coverage can be a costly mistake and we recommend that you never reject such coverage.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes

Going to court is not something we shy away from, but we recognize the positive outcomes that often arise from mediating certain situations. Our firm’s mediation services provide individuals and businesses a way to resolve their legal disputes efficiently and quietly.

Premises Liability
Negligence can be described as acting without proper or reasonable care in the circumstances, leading to the injury (physical or emotional in nature) of another. For example, a restaurant manager may be informed of a leak in the bathroom that has left the floor wet. If he did not act quickly and either put up a sign or clean up the water, and a customer slipped and fell and was injured as a result, this may be considered negligence and may offer the injured customer grounds to file a premises liability claim against the restaurant manager.
Construction Litigation
Ever since we first began in 1999, we have been dedicated to providing the people of Lancaster and York County with compassionate advocacy and comprehensive representation. We have shaped ourselves into a one-stop law firm that can address almost any legal matter. Our firm regularly helps clients in the practice of civil law, construction law, including engineering regulations and filing the proper contracts, physician representation, and real estate, including land use and zoning matters. If you have a legal matter, we are ready to help.
Land Use and Zoning
Property Damage
You may be able to hold other parties accountable for the accident. Establishments must serve alcohol responsibly. If the other driver was negligently served alcohol at a liquor store, bar or restaurant, the server, bartender or the owner may be held liable under Pennsylvania’s Dram Shop law if it can be found that an establishment served a visibly intoxicated customer and that service led to an accident involving property damage, serious injury, or death.

Personal Injury
Motorcycles are quite popular in the state of Pennsylvania. With a vast network of open roads in York and Lancaster County, our area hears about motorcycle accidents regularly. Everyone who has experience riding a motorcycle understands that in a collision with a larger, heavier motor vehicle, the vehicle is going to win. Motorcycles are simply not crashworthy. In addition, without the safety of cars, the aftermath for the biker could be catastrophic. A collision at any speed is generally going to mean disaster for the rider. Worst of all, the at-fault motorist very often blames the rider for the accident. It takes a knowledgeable York personal injury attorney to successfully fight the bias against motorcyclists and prevail. If you are a biker and have suffered a serious injury in an auto accident, you may need to take legal action to protect yourself from the financial aftermath of your accident and your road to recovery. Contact Ilkhanoff & Silverstein for a free initial consultation to discuss your legal situation with a seasoned civil trial attorney.
Auto Accidents
Dog Bites
While dogs have long been known as man’s best friend, we have to remember that they are still animals with animal instincts. Whether the dog never bit before, or if the dog had a history of biting, it is still the dog’s owner’s responsibility to keep their animal contained and others safe from injury In many cases a dog bite will occur while someone is visiting their friends or family, or on public property. Unfortunately, small children are at the greatest risk of dog bite injuries because of their small stature. When children are bitten and attacked by dogs, most of their injuries are to the face, neck, and head areas. When children are attacked by a dangerous dog, they can suffer permanent scarring and disfigurement, not to mention serious psychological effects from the incident. Whenever a dog bites or otherwise injures someone acting lawfully, the victim has the right to pursue damages.
